ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Don Norman - Cognitive scientist and design critic
Don Norman studies how real people interact with design, exploring the gulf between what a designer intends and what a regular person actually wants. His work has resulted in some classic books, including "The Design of Everyday Things."

Why you should listen

Don Norman is an anthropologist of modern life, studying the way we humans interact with our designed world. Though he has a slight reputation as a grumpy critic, his work is generous and insightful -- he wants nothing less than to close the gap between products and their users. If you've ever fought with an automatic faucet in an airport bathroom, or wondered which button to press in the anonymous row on top of your printer, it's good to know that Norman is in your corner. He's the author of a raft of books on design and the way we humans interact with it, including the classic "Design of Everyday Things." His next book, says his website, will be about sociable design.

Norman began his career as an academic, working in psychology and then cognitive science at UCSD. In the mid-'90s, he joined Apple and ended up in their Advanced Technology Group, and later worked for HP, before returning to university life. He's now the co-director of an innovative combined MBA and MEM program (called MMM) at Northwestern University. He's also a cofounder of the usability consultancy Nielsen Norman Group.

一打开包装 我看到一张纸条
01:09
that says, "Don't use this juicer榨汁机 to make juice果汁."
21
57000
3000
上面写着 不要用这机器来做果汁
01:12
The acid will ruin废墟 the gold plating电镀.

2000
它的确很美 也很实用
01:43
And I can tell you stories故事 about it,
36
91000
2000
我还能跟你讲几个故事
01:45
which哪一个 makes品牌 it reflective反光,
37
93000
2000
扩展一下主题
01:47
and so you'll你会 see I have a theory理论 of emotion情感.
38
95000
2000
大家知道 我有一套关于情绪的理论
01:49
And those are the three components组件.
39
97000
2000
这些就是理论的三大块
01:51
Hiroshi Ishii石井 and his group at the MITMIT Media媒体 Lab实验室
40
99000
3000
Hiroshi Ishii以及他的同事在MIT媒体实验室搞了这么一样东西
01:54
took a ping-pong乒乓 table and placed放置 a projector放映机 above以上 it,
41
102000
3000
他们找到一张乒乓球桌 并且在上面放置一台投影仪
01:57
and on the ping-pong乒乓 table they projected预计 an image图片 of water
42
105000
3000
通过投影仪 在乒乓球桌上投射出一个水面
02:00
with fish swimming游泳的 in it.
43
108000
2000
上面有鱼儿在游动
02:02
And as you play ping-pong乒乓, whenever每当 the ball hits点击 part部分 of the table,
44
110000
3000
你在那儿打乒乓球 只要球一触到桌面
02:05
the ripples涟漪 spread传播 out and the fish run away.
45
113000
2000
就会有波纹弹出来 鱼儿也随之游到别的地方
02:07
But of course课程, then the ball hits点击 the other side,
46
115000
2000
而后球又跳到另外一个地方
02:09
the ripples涟漪 hit击中 the -- poor较差的 fish, they can't find any peace和平 and quiet安静.
47
117000
3000
再次激起水波 看看那鱼儿啊 也真可怜的
02:12
(Laughter笑声)
48
120000
1000
(笑声)
02:13
Is that a good way to play ping-pong乒乓?
49
121000
2000
这是不是玩乒乓球的好办法?
02:15
No. But is it fun开玩笑?
50
123000
2000
不是 但好不好玩?
02:17
Yeah! Yeah.
51
125000
3000
肯定好玩
02:20
Or look at Google谷歌.
52
128000
2000
再看看Google
02:22
If you type类型 in, oh say, "emotion情感 and design设计,"
53
130000
5000
假如你搜“情感 设计”
02:27
you get 10 pages网页 of results结果.
54
135000
2000
你会得到十页搜索结果
02:29
So Google谷歌 just took their logo商标 and they spread传播 it out.
55
137000
3000
而Google则非常巧妙的撕开自己的logo, 使之排成十页
02:32
Instead代替 of saying, "You got 73,000 results结果.
56
140000
2000
它不是直接告诉你 有73,000个搜索结果
02:34
This is one through通过 20. Next下一个,"
57
142000
2000
这是头20个
02:36
they just give you as many许多 o'sO公司 as there are pages网页.
58
144000
3000
它只让你看到有很多个“O”,而每一个O都代表了一页
02:39
It's really simple简单 and subtle微妙.
59
147000
2000
非常简单又非常细腻的一个设计
02:41
I bet赌注 a lot of you have seen看到 it and never noticed注意到 it.
60
149000
3000
我想你们很多人都看过 但是没有注意到
02:44
That's the subconscious潜意识 mind心神
61
152000
2000
这就是潜意识
02:46
that sort分类 of notices通告 it -- it probably大概 is kind of pleasant愉快
62
154000
2000
潜意识注意到这东西 也隐约感到快乐
02:48
and you didn't know why.
63
156000
2000
但是你不知是为什么
02:50
And it's just clever聪明.
64
158000
2000
真是妙不可言
02:52
And of course课程, what's especially特别 good is,
65
160000
2000
而最有趣的则是
02:54
if you type类型 "design设计 and emotion情感,"
66
162000
2000
当你搜“设计与情感”的时候
02:56
the first response响应 out of those 10 pages网页 is my website网站.
67
164000
4000
我的网站是排在搜索结果的第一位的
03:00
(Laughter笑声)
68
168000
2000
(笑声)
03:02
Now, the weird奇怪的 thing is Google谷歌 lies,
69
170000
3000
可是 Google也会骗人
03:05
because if I type类型 "design设计 and emotion情感,"
70
173000
2000
因为假如我搜“设计与情感”
03:07
it says, "You don't need the 'and'和.' We do it anyway无论如何."
71
175000
3000
Google就会告诉我说 你不需打“与”字 我们自己会加上去的
03:10
So, OK.
72
178000
2000
03:12
So I type类型 "design设计 emotion情感"
73
180000
2000
那我就打“设计 情感”
03:14
and my website网站 wasn't first again.
74
182000
2000
这时我的网站不再是排在结果的第一位了
03:16
It was third第三.
75
184000
2000
而是落到了第三位
03:18
Oh well, different不同 story故事.
76
186000
2000
好 再说一个故事
03:22
There was this wonderful精彩 review评论 in The New York纽约 Times
77
190000
3000
《纽约时报》有一次刊登了一则评论
03:25
about the MINI微型 Cooper库珀 automobile汽车.
78
193000
2000
是关于微型Cooper汽车的
03:27
It said, "You know, this is a car汽车 that has lots of faults故障.
79
195000
4000
上面写到 这是一辆充满缺陷的汽车
03:31
Buy购买 it anyway无论如何.
80
199000
2000
但你可以放心买
03:33
It's so much fun开玩笑 to drive驾驶."
81
201000
2000
因为开这车感觉棒极了
03:35
And if you look at the inside of the car汽车 --
82
203000
3000
假如你看看车的内部
03:38
I mean, I loved喜爱 it, I wanted to see it, I rented it,
83
206000
2000
我当时很想看 就租了一辆
03:40
this is me taking服用 a picture图片 while my son儿子 is driving主动 --
84
208000
3000
这是我儿子驾车的时候 我拍下来的照片
03:43
and the inside of the car汽车, the whole整个 design设计 is fun开玩笑.
85
211000
3000
车子内部的设计 带给人的就是快感
03:46
It's round回合, it's neat整齐.
86
214000
2000
圆圆的 非常趣致
03:48
The controls控制 work wonderfully奇妙.
87
216000
2000
控制非常好
03:50
So that's my new life; it's all about fun开玩笑.
88
218000
3000
这就是我的新生活 就是关于好玩的新生活
03:53
I really have the feeling感觉 that pleasant愉快 things work better,
89
221000
3000
我真的认为 好玩的东西总是走在一起的
03:56
and that never made制作 any sense to me
90
224000
3000
但我一直都不能理解为什么
03:59
until直到 I finally最后 figured想通 out -- look ...
91
227000
2000
直到……
04:03
I'm going to put a plank on the ground地面.
92
231000
2000
好 我要往地板上放一块木板
04:05
So, imagine想像 I have a plank about two feet wide and 30 feet long
93
233000
3000
设想一下 我有一块2英尺宽 30英尺长的木板
04:08
and I'm going to walk步行 on it, and you see I can walk步行 on it without looking,
94
236000
3000
我可以在木板上踱步 而不需惊慌
04:11
I can go back and forth向前 and I can jump up and down.
95
239000
2000
我可以往前 往后 可以跳上跳下
04:13
No problem问题.
96
241000
2000
没有任何问题
04:15
Now I'm going to put the plank 300 feet in the air空气 --
97
243000
4000
而假如我要把这木板放在300英尺高的地方
04:19
and I'm not going to go near it, thank you.
98
247000
3000
我就不会走近它了
04:25
Intense激烈 fear恐惧 paralyzes瘫痪 you.
99
253000
2000
畏惧感会让人变得麻木的
04:27
It actually其实 affects影响 the way the brain works作品.
100
255000
3000
它会改变大脑工作的模式
04:30
So, Paul保罗 Saffo萨弗, before his talk said that he didn't really have it down
101
258000
4000
保罗·萨福刚才结束自己的演讲时说
04:34
until直到 just a few少数 days or hours小时 before the talk,
102
262000
2000
他在演讲开始之前一直感到非常紧张 直到 最后几天 甚至最后几个小时才能冷静下来
04:36
and that anxiety焦虑 was really helpful有帮助 in causing造成 him to focus焦点.
103
264000
4000
但那种因为紧张而产生的焦虑 却可以帮助他集中精神去工作
04:40
That's what fear恐惧 and anxiety焦虑 does;
104
268000
2000
畏惧与焦虑的作用也是如此
04:42
it causes原因 you to be -- what's called depth-first深度优先 processing处理 --
105
270000
3000
它们能够世人集中精神 而不是分散注意力
04:45
to focus焦点, not be distracted分心.
106
273000
3000
也就是通常说的深度第一的处理原则
04:48
And I couldn't不能 force myself across横过 that.
107
276000
3000
但我发现自己做不到
04:51
Now some people can -- circus马戏团 workers工人, steel workers工人.
108
279000
3000
但是有些人可以做得到 例如马戏团演员 钢铁工人
04:54
But it really changes变化 the way you think.
109
282000
2000
这两种情绪确实可以改变你想问题的方式
04:56
And then, a psychologist心理学家, Alice爱丽丝 IsenISEN,
110
284000
3000
一位叫阿丽斯·艾森的心理学家
04:59
did this wonderful精彩 experiment实验.
111
287000
2000
做了一个很有趣的实验
05:01
She brought students学生们 in to solve解决 problems问题.
112
289000
2000
她找到几个学生
05:03
So, she'd bring带来 people into the room房间,
113
291000
2000
把他们带到房间
05:05
and there'd这红色 be a string hanging down here
114
293000
2000
房间的这里有根绳子
05:07
and a string hanging down here.
115
295000
2000
那里也有根绳子
05:09
It was an empty room房间, except for a table with a bunch of crap掷骰子 on it --
116
297000
3000
那是一个空房间 只有 一张桌子 桌上有些杂物
05:12
some papers文件 and scissors剪刀 and stuff东东.
117
300000
2000
那是一些纸 剪刀 和其他东西
05:14
And she'd bring带来 them in,
118
302000
2000
她把学生带到房间里
05:16
and she'd say,
119
304000
2000
她说
05:18
"This is an IQ智商 test测试 and it determines确定 how well you do in life.
120
306000
3000
这是一个IQ测试题 它可以测试 你在实际生活中的应变能力
05:21
Would you tie领带 those two strings字符串 together一起?"
121
309000
3000
你们能把这两根绳子绑起来吗
05:24
So they'd他们会 take one string and they'd他们会 pull it over here
122
312000
3000
学生一手拿着这头的绳子 然后 伸出 另一只手去够另一根绳子
05:27
and they couldn't不能 reach达到 the other string.
123
315000
3000
他们够不着
05:30
Still can't reach达到 it.
124
318000
2000
实在是够不着
05:32
And, basically基本上, none没有 of them could solve解决 it.
125
320000
3000
结果是没有人能完成任务
05:35
You bring带来 in a second第二 group of people,
126
323000
3000
那位心理学家又叫来另一群学生
05:38
and you say, "Oh, before we start开始,
127
326000
3000
跟他们说 我们开始之前
05:41
I got this box of candy糖果, and I don't eat candy糖果.
128
329000
3000
我想告诉大家 我这里 有一盒糖 可是我不吃糖的
05:44
Would you like the box of candy糖果?"
129
332000
2000
你们吃不吃?
05:46
And turns out they liked喜欢 it, and it made制作 them happy快乐 --
130
334000
3000
学生很喜欢吃 吃得很开心
05:49
not very happy快乐, but a little bit of happy快乐.
131
337000
2000
也许不算很开心吧 至少是让他们感觉心情好一点
05:51
And guess猜测 what -- they solved解决了 the problem问题.
132
339000
2000
而后他们就解决问题了
05:53
And it turns out that when you're anxious
133
341000
3000
当你处于焦虑状态的时候
05:56
you squirt喷出 neural神经 transmitters变送器 in the brain, which哪一个 focuses重点 you
134
344000
3000
你的大脑里的神经交换就会加速 这样你会更容易集中精力
05:59
makes品牌 you depth-first深度优先.
135
347000
2000
让你沉浸在那个思考的氛围里
06:01
And when you're happy快乐 -- what we call positive valence --
136
349000
3000
当你感到快乐的时候
06:04
you squirt喷出 dopamine多巴胺 into the prefrontal前额叶 lobes,
137
352000
2000
你就会把更多的多巴胺输送到大脑前额
06:06
which哪一个 makes品牌 you a breadth-first广度优先 problem问题 solver求解:
138
354000
2000
这时你就转入宽式为先的思考
06:08
you're more susceptible易感 to interruption中断; you do out-of-the-box盒子外面 thinking思维.
139
356000
3000
你会更容易被外界干扰打乱情绪 并且你在进行框外思考
06:11
That's what brainstorming头脑风暴 is about, right?
140
359000
3000
这不就是头脑风暴之本质吗
06:14
With brainstorming头脑风暴 we make you happy快乐, we play games游戏,
141
362000
3000
每一次头脑风暴 你都感觉很快乐 你会玩游戏
06:17
and we say, "No criticism批评,"
142
365000
2000
并且没有人指责你的想法
06:19
and you get all these weird奇怪的, neat整齐 ideas思路.
143
367000
2000
于是各种古怪的想法都出来了
06:21
But in fact事实, if that's how you always were you'd never get any work doneDONE
144
369000
3000
但假如你任何时候都是这个样子 那么你什么事情也做不了
06:24
because you'd be working加工 along沿 and say, "Oh, I got a new way of doing it."
145
372000
3000
因为你会忽然在工作到一半的时候说 “对啊 我可以用新的办法来做呢!”
06:27
So to get work doneDONE, you've got to set a deadline截止日期, right?
146
375000
4000
因此 要想做好工作 就需要一个时间表 对不对
06:31
You've got be anxious.
147
379000
2000
你必须得有焦虑感
06:33
The brain works作品 differently不同
148
381000
2000
不同时候 人的大脑的工作方式不一样
06:35
if you're happy快乐. Things work better because you're more creative创作的.
149
383000
3000
当你高兴的时候 你会变得更有创意
06:38
You get a little problem问题, you say, "Ah, I'll figure数字 it out."
150
386000
3000
遇到问题 你就会想 我会找办法解决它
06:41
No big deal合同.
151
389000
2000
没什么大不了的
06:43
There's something I call the visceral内脏 level水平 of processing处理, and there will be visceral-level内脏级 design设计.
152
391000
2000
一种是知觉层面的信息处理
06:45
Biology生物学 -- we have co-adapted共适应 through通过 biology生物学 to like bright colors颜色.
153
393000
4000
看看生物 漫长演化的结果是我们人非常喜欢鲜艳的颜色
06:49
That's especially特别 good that mammals哺乳动物 and primates灵长类动物 like fruits水果
154
397000
4000
哺乳动物和灵长类动物喜欢水果
06:53
and bright plants植物, because you eat the fruit水果
155
401000
2000
喜欢鲜艳的植物 你吃掉水果
06:55
and you thereby从而 spread传播 the seed种子.
156
403000
2000
你也帮忙传播了种子
06:57
There's an amazing惊人 amount of stuff东东 that's built内置 into the brain.
157
405000
3000
人的大脑是被进化塑造的
07:00
We dislike反感 bitter tastes口味, we dislike反感 loud sounds声音,
158
408000
3000
我们不喜欢苦味 不喜欢噪音
07:03
we dislike反感 hot temperatures温度, cold temperatures温度.
159
411000
2000
不喜欢高热或寒冷
07:05
We dislike反感 scolding痛骂 voices声音. We dislike反感 frowning皱着眉头 faces面孔;
160
413000
4000
不喜欢责备的声音 不喜欢皱眉的脸
07:09
we like symmetrical对称 faces面孔, etc等等., etc等等.
161
417000
2000
我们喜欢对称的脸
07:12
So that's the visceral内脏 level水平.
162
420000
2000
这些都是本能层面的情感
07:14
In design设计, you can express表现 visceral内脏 in lots of ways方法,
163
422000
3000
在设计上 你可以通过不同的方式去表达这样的情感
07:17
like the choice选择 of type类型 fonts字体 and the red for hot, exciting扣人心弦.
164
425000
5000
比如字体的选择 颜色的选择
07:22
Or the 1963 Jaguar捷豹:
165
430000
2000
看看这款1963年的猎豹汽车
07:24
It's actually其实 a crummy照出 car汽车, falls下降 apart距离 all the time,
166
432000
3000
那是很老的一款车 经常坏
07:27
but the owners拥有者 love it.
167
435000
2000
但是车主喜欢
07:29
And it's beautiful美丽 -- it's in the Museum博物馆 of Modern现代 Art艺术.
168
437000
2000
它很美 它就被收藏在纽约现代艺术博物馆
07:31
A water bottle瓶子:
169
439000
2000
这是一个水罐
07:33
You buy购买 it because of the bottle瓶子, not because of the water.
170
441000
3000
你买它是因为这个罐很别致 而不是里面的水
07:36
And when people are finished, they don't throw it away.
171
444000
3000
人们喝完里面的水之后 不会把罐扔掉
07:39
They keep it for -- you know, it's like the old wine红酒 bottles瓶子, you keep it for decoration装饰
172
447000
3000
他们把罐留下来 当装饰用途
07:42
or maybe fill it with water again, which哪一个 proves证明 it's not the water.
173
450000
3000
或者再次装上水 这表明不是水的魅力
07:45
It's all about the visceral内脏 experience经验.
174
453000
4000
这都是本能上的体验
07:50
The middle中间 level水平 of processing处理 is the behavioral行为的 level水平
175
458000
4000
第二层是行为层面
07:54
and that's actually其实 where most of our stuff东东 gets得到 doneDONE.
176
462000
2000
我们生活中绝大多数的东西都是这样生产出来的
07:56
Visceral内脏 is subconscious潜意识, you're unaware不知道 of it.
177
464000
2000
知觉认识是潜意识的 你根本不知道它发生了
07:58
Behavioral行为的 is subconscious潜意识, you're unaware不知道 of it.
178
466000
3000
行为也是这样的 你也感觉不到
08:01
Almost几乎 everything we do is subconscious潜意识.
179
469000
2000
我们所做的几乎所有事情都是潜意识的
08:03
I'm walking步行 around the stage阶段 -- I'm not attending出席 to the control控制 of my legs.
180
471000
4000
我在舞台上走 我并没有听从我的脚的指挥
08:07
I'm doing a lot; most of my talk is subconscious潜意识;
181
475000
3000
我说话大多数时候也是潜意识的
08:10
it has been rehearsed排练 and thought about a lot.
182
478000
2000
我之前做过很多准备 想了很多
08:12
Most of what we do is subconscious潜意识.
183
480000
2000
我们做的大多数东西是潜意识的
08:14
Automatic自动 behavior行为 -- skilled技能的 behavior行为 -- is subconscious潜意识,
184
482000
3000
自动化的行为 因为熟练而做的事情
08:17
controlled受控 by the behavioral行为的 side.
185
485000
2000
这些都是由行为控制的
08:19
And behavioral行为的 design设计 is all about feeling感觉 in control控制,
186
487000
4000
行为设计之本质就是要让使用者感到一切都在掌控之中
08:23
which哪一个 includes包括 usability可用性, understanding理解 --
187
491000
3000
包括可用性 理解
08:26
but also the feel and heft分量.
188
494000
2000
还有质感与重量
08:28
That's why the Global全球 knives are so neat整齐.
189
496000
2000
万能小刀设计得那么精致
08:30
They're so nicely很好 balanced均衡, so sharp尖锐,
190
498000
2000
非常匀称 锋利
08:32
that you really feel you're in control控制 of the cutting切割.
191
500000
2000
你会感觉一切控于自己的掌中
08:34
Or, just driving主动 a high-performance高性能 sports体育 car汽车
192
502000
4000
或者是开着一辆性能非常好的汽车
08:38
over a demanding严格 curb抑制 --
193
506000
2000
越过一个大槛
08:40
again, feeling感觉 that you are in complete完成 control控制 of the environment环境.
194
508000
3000
你会感觉一切尽在自己的掌控之中
08:43
Or the sensual声色 feeling感觉.
195
511000
2000
或者是一种感官上的情绪
08:45
This is a Kohler科勒 shower淋浴, a waterfall瀑布 shower淋浴,
196
513000
2000
这是一个科勒淋浴头,一个瀑布效果的淋浴头
08:47
and actually其实, all those knobs旋钮 beneath下面 are also showerheads淋浴.
197
515000
3000
下面这些小孔也是一个个小小的喷头
08:50
It will squirt喷出 you all around
198
518000
2000
它还能往任意方向射水
08:52
and you can stay in that shower淋浴 for hours小时 --
199
520000
2000
你就可以一连几个小时站在那里淋浴
08:54
and not waste浪费 water, by the way,
200
522000
2000
并且不会浪费水
08:56
because it recirculates再循环 the same相同 dirty water.
201
524000
2000
它会让污水实现循环利用
08:58
(Laughter笑声)
202
526000
3000
(笑声)
09:01
Or this -- this is a really neat整齐 teapot茶壶 I found发现
203
529000
2000
还有这个 这是非常精致的一个茶壶
09:03
at high tea at The Four Seasons四季 Hotel旅馆 in Chicago芝加哥.
204
531000
4000
我是在芝加哥四季酒店那里购得的
09:07
It's a RonnefeldtRonnefeldt tilting倾斜 teapot茶壶.
205
535000
2000
它是一款罗纳福特斜体茶壶
09:09
That's kind of what the teapot茶壶 looks容貌 like
206
537000
2000
表面看跟普通茶壶没有区别
09:11
but the way you use it is you lay铺设 it on its back,
207
539000
3000
但是 要用的时候 你需要将其躺放到桌面
09:14
and you put tea in,
208
542000
2000
然后把茶叶放进去
09:16
and then you fill it with water.
209
544000
2000
罐上水
09:18
The water then seeps渗漏 over the tea.
210
546000
3000
水会把茶浸透
09:21
And the tea is sitting坐在 in this stuff东东 to the right --
211
549000
3000
茶就会被挪到茶壶的右手边
09:24
the tea is to the right of this line线.
212
552000
2000
就是在这条线的右手边
09:26
There's a little ledge窗台 inside, so the tea is sitting坐在 there
213
554000
2000
里面有一条横挡 茶就在这个地方
09:28
and the water is filling填充 it up like that.
214
556000
2000
水慢慢的浸透茶身
09:30
And when the tea is ready准备, or almost几乎 ready准备, you tilt倾斜 it.
215
558000
3000
当茶已经弄好或将要弄好的时候 你就把茶壶放稍微倾斜一点
09:33
And that means手段 the tea is partially部分 covered覆盖
216
561000
3000
这样子茶就不会全部被覆盖
09:36
while it completes完成 the brewing酿造.
217
564000
2000
而同时可以继续温
09:38
And when it's finished, you put it vertically垂直,
218
566000
2000
一旦茶好了,你就把茶壶放正
09:40
and now the tea is -- you remember记得 -- above以上 this line线
219
568000
2000
大家应该记得 茶是在这个位置的
09:42
and the water only comes to here --
220
570000
3000
而水只会跑到这个地方
09:45
and so it keeps保持 the tea out.
221
573000
2000
并且把茶隔离出来
09:47
On top最佳 of that, it communicates相通,
222
575000
2000
除此而外 茶壶本身也在进行一种交流
09:49
which哪一个 is what emotion情感 does.
223
577000
2000
这也是情感之本义
09:51
Emotion情感 is all about acting演戏; emotion情感 is really about acting演戏.
224
579000
3000
情感表现在行为上
09:54
It's being存在 safe安全 in the world世界.
225
582000
2000
就是那种安全的感觉
09:56
Cognition认识 is about understanding理解 the world世界, emotion情感 is about interpreting解读 it --
226
584000
4000
认知之意义在于理解世界 而情感则试图解释这个世界
10:00
saying good, bad, safe安全, dangerous危险,
227
588000
2000
善良与邪恶 安全与危险 都是通过情感判断出来的
10:02
and getting得到 us ready准备 to act法案, which哪一个 is why the muscles肌肉 tense紧张 or relax放松.
228
590000
3000
有了判断我们才会行动 肌肉之活动也与此相关
10:05
And that's why we can tell the emotion情感 of somebody else其他 --
229
593000
4000
我们可以分辨出其他人的情感
10:09
because their muscles肌肉 are acting演戏, subconsciously下意识,
230
597000
2000
因为我们可以看得到他们的肌肉 在活动 尽管只是在潜意识的指挥下
10:11
except that we've我们已经 evolved进化 to make the facial面部 muscles肌肉 really rich丰富 with emotion情感.
231
599000
6000
而我们的面部表情又是特别擅长于传情达意
10:17
Well, this has emotions情绪 if you like,
232
605000
2000
这个茶壶也是有情感的
10:19
because it signals信号 the waiter服务员 that, "Hey, I'm finished. See -- upright直立."
233
607000
4000
因为它会向服务员发出一个信号 “看,茶弄好了。你看我都站起来了“
10:23
And the waiter服务员 can come by and say, "Would you like more water?"
234
611000
3000
这时服务员会过来问 “是不是需要多一点水”
10:26
It's kind of neat整齐. What a wonderful精彩 design设计.
235
614000
2000
这一点真的很巧妙 实在是一个不错的设计
10:28
And the third第三 level水平 is reflective反光,
236
616000
4000
第三个层面的就是反思性的
10:32
which哪一个 is, if you like the superego超我,
237
620000
4000
就是指弗洛伊德所言的超我
10:36
it's a little part部分 of the brain that has no control控制 over what you do,
238
624000
3000
那是大脑的一部分 它无法控制你的行为
10:39
no control控制 over the -- doesn't see the senses感官,
239
627000
4000
无法控制你的感官
10:43
doesn't control控制 the muscles肌肉.
240
631000
2000
也无法控制你的肌肉
10:45
It looks容貌 over what's going on.
241
633000
2000
它只会充当一个旁观者
10:47
It's that little voice语音 in your head
242
635000
2000
它就是你大脑里的那个小小的声音
10:49
that's watching观看 and saying, "That's good. That's bad."
243
637000
2000
它看到什么都说:“这东西不错”“这东西不好”
10:51
Or, "Why are you doing that? I don't understand理解."
244
639000
2000
或者是“为什么你这么做?我看不懂”
10:53
It's that little voice语音 in your head that's the seat座位 of consciousness意识.
245
641000
2000
那就是意识之所在
10:55
Here's这里的 a great reflective反光 product产品.
246
643000
3000
这是一个反思性的产品
10:58
Owners拥有者 of the Hummer蜂鸟 have said, "You know I've owned拥有的 many许多 cars汽车 in my life --
247
646000
4000
Hummer的主人曾经说,“我一生拥有许多汽车”
11:02
all sorts排序 of exotic异国情调 cars汽车,
248
650000
2000
包括各种异国的轿车
11:04
but never have I had a car汽车 that attracted吸引 so much attention注意."
249
652000
3000
但是 从来没有一辆车使得我如此倾注自己的心思
11:07
It's about attention注意. It's about their image图片,
250
655000
2000
这关乎他们的形象
11:09
not about the car汽车.
251
657000
2000
而不是汽车本身
11:11
If you want a more positive model模型 --
252
659000
2000
即使你要一个更积极点的例子
11:13
this is the GMGM car汽车.
253
661000
2000
这是一辆通用汽车公司的汽车
11:15
And the reason原因 you might威力 buy购买 it now is because you care关心 about the environment环境.
254
663000
2000
假如你现在决定买这辆车 唯一的解释是你非常关心环保
11:17
And you'll你会 buy购买 it to protect保护 the environment环境,
255
665000
2000
选择买 也是 环保的一个努力
11:19
even though虽然 the first few少数 cars汽车 are going to be really expensive昂贵
256
667000
3000
哪怕最初几辆会是天价
11:22
and not perfected完善.
257
670000
2000
并且没有完整的保修
11:24
But that's reflective反光 design设计 as well.
258
672000
2000
但这就是反思性设计之体现
11:26
Or an expensive昂贵 watch, so you can impress people --
259
674000
2000
或者是一款非常昂贵的手表 你可以在朋友面前炫耀
11:28
"Oh gee哎呀, I didn't know you had that watch."
260
676000
3000
他们会说,“哎哟 怎么我不知道你有个手表呢”
11:31
As opposed反对 to this one,
261
679000
2000
相反 这个
11:33
which哪一个 is a pure behavioral行为的 watch,
262
681000
2000
是一款纯功能型的电子手表
11:35
which哪一个 probably大概 keeps保持 better time than the $13,000 watch I just showed显示 you.
263
683000
3000
它记录时间也许比刚才那个还要准
11:38
But it's ugly丑陋.
264
686000
2000
但是它很丑
11:40
This is a clear明确 Don Norman诺曼 watch.
265
688000
2000
这就是一款唐诺德·诺曼手表
11:42
And what's neat整齐 is sometimes有时 you pit one emotion情感 against反对 the other,
266
690000
3000
当你用一种情感去制衡另一种情感的时候 就显得更加有趣
11:45
the visceral内脏 fear恐惧 of falling落下
267
693000
3000
比如害怕摔倒
11:48
against反对 the reflective反光 state saying, "It's OK. It's OK. It's safe安全. It's safe安全."
268
696000
5000
你会得到暗示 说“这是安全的,你尽管放心”
11:53
If that amusement娱乐 park公园 were rusty生疏 and falling落下 apart距离, you'd never go on the ride.
269
701000
4000
假如游乐园的设备都是生锈的 残破的 相信你不会去那里玩
11:57
So, it's pitting点蚀 one against反对 the other.
270
705000
3000
所以说 是两相权衡之结果
12:00
The other neat整齐 thing ...
271
708000
3000
还有更妙的东西
12:03
(Laughter笑声)
272
711000
4000
(笑声)
12:07
So Jake可靠的人 Cress水芹 is this furniture家具 maker制作者,
273
715000
3000
杰克·克拉斯是一位家具工匠
12:10
and he makes品牌 this unbelievable难以置信的 set of furniture家具.
274
718000
3000
他制作出了这套让人惊叹不已的家具
12:13
And this is his chair椅子 with claw,
275
721000
2000
这是带爪子的椅子
12:15
and the poor较差的 little chair椅子 has lost丢失 its ball
276
723000
3000
它失去了一个球
12:18
and it's trying to get it back before anybody任何人 notices通告.
277
726000
3000
正想趁别人不注意 把球检回来
12:22
And what's so neat整齐 about it is how you accept接受 that story故事.
278
730000
4000
而最奇妙的一点就是 你居然相信这个解释了
12:26
And that's what's nice不错 about emotion情感.
279
734000
3000
这就是情感带给人的快乐
12:29
So that's the new me.
280
737000
2000
这就是一个新的我
12:31
I'm only saying positive things from now on.
281

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Don Norman - Cognitive scientist and design critic
Don Norman studies how real people interact with design, exploring the gulf between what a designer intends and what a regular person actually wants. His work has resulted in some classic books, including "The Design of Everyday Things."

Why you should listen

Don Norman is an anthropologist of modern life, studying the way we humans interact with our designed world. Though he has a slight reputation as a grumpy critic, his work is generous and insightful -- he wants nothing less than to close the gap between products and their users. If you've ever fought with an automatic faucet in an airport bathroom, or wondered which button to press in the anonymous row on top of your printer, it's good to know that Norman is in your corner. He's the author of a raft of books on design and the way we humans interact with it, including the classic "Design of Everyday Things." His next book, says his website, will be about sociable design.

Norman began his career as an academic, working in psychology and then cognitive science at UCSD. In the mid-'90s, he joined Apple and ended up in their Advanced Technology Group, and later worked for HP, before returning to university life. He's now the co-director of an innovative combined MBA and MEM program (called MMM) at Northwestern University. He's also a cofounder of the usability consultancy Nielsen Norman Group.
